Descriptions

The EH-MC33 is an ultra-low-power module supporting Bluetooth 5.3. It is small in size, powerful in function, and has a rich set of interfaces that can be used in Apple FMN positioning, smart home, smart hardware, and other scenarios.

The modules use an Atomic 3325 chip with an ARM Cortex M33 processor at up to 64 MHz, 128 KB of Random Access Memory (RAM), 64 KB of Read-Only Memory (ROM), 512 KB of NonVolatile Memory (NVM), and state-of-the-art power management to maximise the life of the battery used in the device.

The EH-MC33 has extremely low power consumption, with 0.85 mA radio receiver and 2.1 mA radio transmitter power consumption, which can greatly extend the battery life of Internet of Things (IoT) devices. Supports low duty cycle operation, allowing the system to run longer without battery replacement. Supports an innovative wake-up mechanism, providing an option to further reduce energy consumption.

The EH-MC33 also integrates a rich set of peripherals, including SPI, I2S, I2C, UART, PWM， and GPIO interfaces, along with a rich set of application software, and complete module certification, allowing customers to bring their products to market faster and at lower cost.

Product handling

storage condition

• Products sealed in Moisture Barrier Bags (MBB) should be stored in a non-condensing atmosphere of< 40°C/90%RH.
• The moisture sensitivity class MSL of the module is 3.
• After unpacking the vacuum bag, it must be used within 168 hours at 25±5°C and 60% RH, otherwise it will need to be baked before it can be used

electrostatic discharge

• My body discharge mode (HBM): ±2000 V
• Charging Device Mode (CDM):±500V

Reflow temperature profile

It is recommended that the module be reflowed only once.

ultrasonic vibration

Avoid exposing the Next Sense module to vibration from ultrasonic equipment such as ultrasonic welders or ultrasonic cleaners. Vibration from ultrasonic equipment may resonate with the crystal inside the module, causing the crystal to malfunction or even fail, rendering the module inoperable or degrading its performance.

Integration instructions for host product manufacturers according to KDB 996369
D03 OEM Manual v01r01
List of applicable FCC rules:
FCC Part 15 Subpart C 15.247 & 15.207 & 15.209

Specific operational use conditions:

The module is a Bluetooth module with BLE function. Operation Frequency: 2402- 2480MHz
Number of Channel: 40 Modulation: GFSK Type: EH-MC33 Model PCB Antenna(1.20dBi)

The module can be used for mobile or portable applications with a maximum 1.20dBi antenna. The host manufacturer installing this module into their product must ensure that the final composit product complies with the FCC requirements by a technical assessment or evaluation to the FCC rules, including the transmitter operation. The host manufacturer has to be aware not to provide information to the end user regarding how to install or remove this RF module in the user’s manual of the end product which integrates this module. The end user manual shall include all required regulatory information/warning as show in this manual.

Limited module procedures

Not applicable. The module is a Single module and complies with the requirement of FCC Part 15.212.

Trace antenna designs

Not applicable. The module has its own antenna, and doesn’t need a host’s printed board microstrip trace antenna etc.

RF exposure considerations

The module must be installed in the host equipment such that at least 20cm is maintained between the antenna and users’ body; and if RF exposure statement or module layout is changed, then the host product manufacturer required to take responsibility of the module through a change in FCC ID or new application. The FCC ID of the module cannot be used on the final product. In these circumstances, the host manufacturer will be responsible for re- evaluating the end product (including the transmitter) and obtaining a separate FCC authorization.

Antennas

Antenna Specification are as follows: Type: EH-MC33 (PCB Antenna:1.20dBi) This device is intended only for host manufacturers under the following conditions: The transmitter module may not be co-located with any other transmitter or antenna;

The module shall be only used with the internal antenna(s) that has been originally tested and certified with this module. The antenna must be either permanently attached or employ a ‘unique’ antenna coupler.

As long as the conditions above are met, further transmitter test will not be required. However, the host manufacturer is still responsible for testing their end-product for any additional compliance requirements required with this module installed (for example, digital device emissions, PC peripheral requirements, etc.)

Label and compliance information

Host product manufacturers need to provide a physical or e-label stating “Contains

FCC ID: 2ACCRMC33” with their finished product.

Information on test modes and additional testing requirements

Operation Frequency: 2402-2480MHz Number of Channel: 40 Modulation: GFSK

Host manufacturer must perform test of radiated & conducted emission and spurious emission, etc according to the actual test modes for a stand-alone modular transmitter in a host, as well as for multiple simultaneously transmitting modules or other transmitters in a host product. Only when all the test results of test modes comply with FCC requirements, then the end product can be sold legally.

Additional testing, Part 15 Subpart B disclaimer

The modular transmitter is only FCC authorized for FCC Part 15 Subpart C 15.247 & 15.207 & 15.209 and that the host product manufacturer is responsible for compliance to any other FCC rules that apply to the host not covered by the modular transmitter grant of certification. If the grantee markets their product as being Part 15 Subpart B compliant (when it also contains unintentional-radiator digital circuity), then the grantee shall provide a notice stating that the final host product still requires Part 15 Subpart B compliance testing with the modular transmitter installed.

Federal Communication Commission Statement (FCC, U.S.)

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.

Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

FCC Caution:

Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate this equipment.

IMPORTANT NOTES

Co-location warning:

This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.

OEM integration instructions:

This device is intended only for OEM integrators under the following conditions: The transmitter module may not be co-located with any other transmitter or antenna. The module shall be only used with the external antenna(s) that has been originally tested and certified with this module. As long as the conditions above are met, further transmitter test will not be required. However, the OEM integrator is still responsible for testing their end-product for any additional compliance requirements required with this module installed (for example, digital device emissions, PC peripheral requirements, etc.).

Validity of using the module certification:

In the event that these conditions cannot be met (for example certain laptop configurations or co-location with another transmitter), then the FCC authorization for this module in combination with the host equipment is no longer considered valid and the FCC ID of the module cannot be used on the final product. In these circumstances, the OEM integrator will be responsible for re-evaluating the end product (including the transmitter) and obtaining a separate FCC authorization
